    Bending...midi?

    It should be stressed that the midi instrument you're using must be able to pitchbend . Some can't, though most decent Strings/Violin libraries can.

    Mastering: The DIY Guide

    Falls at almost the first hurdle for me. Your friend describes how to compress something and describes a process based entirely on meter read-outs what is IMHO entirely the wrong approach. It's your ears that count in every circumstance and doing anything simply by achieving certain meter...

    Recommendation for a solid basic mixer for headphone mix?

    A simple audio interface will do that, as I've already said.

    Recommendation for a solid basic mixer for headphone mix?

    A basic audio interface can do what you want, starting (bottom end of market, but NOT IMHO bottom end of the specs or performance) with the U-Phoria 204 (the cheaper 202 doesn't have the monitor mix control you want). Maybe I've misunderstood your needs, but a mixer seems to be overkill if all...

    Software

    Audacity is very basic, really an editing software rather than a DAW. Reaper is very cheap and it allows you to try it (without limitations) for as long as you want free of charge. I'd recommend going down that route and check out the video suggested above. ALL DAWs require an amount of...

    Mastering a song. Indicator reads data exists ie hollow square

    I think we are on a hardware system, Tascam or the like. And the track indicator box on the built in tiny monitor which, according the poster shoukld show a dot or a line to indicate empty space. I'm just guessing but that seems the obvious answer (very obvious ) from what he writes. Of...

    Question about dynamic range

    PLEASE, PLEASE. I hate saying this, but the poster who said a lack of dynamic range is "good" is wrong. It's neither good nor bad. And I say that with the greatest respect to Steen. Dynamic range IS - potentially - a stylistic choice while mixing and mastering, but normally it is good to have...

    Building home studio

    Er, I think the OP means Trilian - a $299 Bass plugin. But you knew that, didn't you.

    About posting Links

    The forum's set up so you have to wait to make a certain number of posts before you can post a link. Not sure how many, but someone will surely stop by and let you know. Meantime, I'd start reading some threads that interest you and joining in.

    High Mixing Level

    The simple (sorry, but it really is simple) answer is to always leave some headroom. I mix so that I am never above -6db and often at around -10 to 15db. If you start out like that, with track faders pulled below zero, it has two main advantages: 1) That you have to room to boost sounds in the...

    Loudness meter help

    I seem to recall that I came across some metering software a while back where you loaded the audio file, it analysed it and gave you integrated and other loudness readings WITHOUT having to play through the whole track. But I cannot for the life of me remember who does it or what it was called...

    Where are any Android VSTs?

    There are no such things as "Android Vsts". There are just VSTs. They are not system-specific. Mixpad Master accepts any VSTs. So search VST effects are VST instruments and off you trot.

    Advice on Lexicon Lambda

    Ah, sorry. That was misleading. My Lambda has been in use for more than 12 years. One of the controls crackles a little when you move it. Nothing to do with the quality of the interface (I think 12 years service and still working on it daily is testament to the quality) more to do with the...

    Advice on Lexicon Lambda

    The Lambda has served me very well for years. Now running it on Windows 10 PC (it took them an age to sort out drivers above windows 7 PCs.). You can control input gain ( for low output mics) phantom power, monitor mix control. Mine's a little cranky now, but absolutely perfect for my needs. And...
